Review: Lensbaby Sol 45 (45mm f3.5 Sony E Mount, FE)

We've been testing the new Lensbaby Sol 45 for many months now; with many of its unique features this lens could be a favorite of many photographers who love their bokeh. But for photographers who want to use it for something more serious, the Lensbaby Sol 45 could present to you an inherent an sometimes annoying challenge.

For starters, it's a fixed f3. 5 aperture lens. While it's capable of rendering sharp images, I can't get behind the lack of interchangeable apertures. However, what you sacrifice instead is the ability to change the shape of the bokeh ever so slightly along with Lensbaby's token shifting abilities. .
